    Of-course you can do the preparation for IAS/IPS examination. If you want to take commerce in UPSC Mains exam then you can take.

    But I suggest you to take Arts Subjects like History, Political Science, Sociology, Psychology, Philosophy etc. If you have good writing skills then you can absolutely Crack the Exam.

    After that you have to go for the Question Pattern of Exam so you should download and print Previous Years Question Papers from www.upsc.gov.in

    yes,it is acceptable because UPSC doesn't restrict any aspirants from opting out of the list of 25 main subjects but their is certain restrriction of combination of subjects like you can't opt. sociology & public administration, chemical engineering along that chemistry etc but your subjects are among NO bar ,so you can comfortably opt. them & go for the examination preparation without wasting anymore time.

    good luck.

    Dear,
    Choosing the optional subject is a crucial decision. As a commerce graduate, I think your optional choice is very good. Because these two subjects are your parent subjects and it is easy to you for preparation. Thank You.

    Hi Aspirant

    Yes you can choose these subjects as optional subjects

    Commerce and Accountancy and Economics

    As their is no limitation from the upsc to choose these subjects

    And their is no restriction also from the upsc side and you can go with these subjects

    With out any problem

    And also the combination that you have choose is actually very nice

    As you are a commerce student so you have studied accounts and economics

    At both level In 12th as well as in your graduation

    And this would be a positive point for you also

    So start working hard on these subjects

    As specially Accountancy needs a lot of practice

    As you know it easily as you are a commerce student

    Also in economics also same need to write answers to the point

    Best of luck
